The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard and multiple federal statutes such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), exist to protect customer data, and over 38 states have enacted local legislation to require companies to issue breach notifications to all individuals whose data may have been compromised in the event of a leak of personally identifiable information. But even with all these controls in place, more than 158 million records containing sensitive personal information have been involved in security breaches since the beginning of 2005 according to the Privacy Clearinghouse.
The results of such breaches can be far-reaching. Organizations must not only bear the expense of fines and dedicated customer support operations, but also any resulting loss of shareholder and customer confidence, impact on reputation, brand, and stock market valuation, and even the potential criminal penalties. Dealing with a data breach is disruptive to business and can give competitors an advantage. It does not matter whether breaches are accidental or deliberate; what matters is that the organization is perceived to have failed in its duty to care for personal and confidential information.
